About this fabric

This 354 gsm fabric shows tall, stylised blue flower heads surrounded by curling leaves, small ivory blossoms and delicate yellow accents. Its 51.4 cm vertical and 45.7 cm horizontal pattern repeats give the design a clearly readable medium-scale rhythm. A 137.2 cm usable width makes the cloth practical for both upholstery and drapery applications, while its 21 threads per cm specification supports the visibly substantial handle. The colourway reads cool and gently muted rather than bright, with the cornflower blue standing out against the pale aqua and ivory ground.

How to use it

Pair this cool blue colourway with chalky whites, pale timber and soft grey-blue upholstery for a fresh, collected room. Use it on a statement chair or relaxed curtains where the vertical flowers and leafy movement can be seen clearly.

Use the cool cornflower blooms and pale aqua foliage to bring a fresh, illustrated layer to upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
